I did a search but found nowt really useful apart from a link to the Jimny shop which is now closed. Can anybody tell me what is involved in fitting manual operated freewheeling SJ hubs please if they have the time..

Once you have that, its litterally the case of unbolt the vacum hubs,
Then bolt your manual hubs using the spacer, make sure your hubs come with the cone washers if not they are available on jimny bits
Other people have then removed vacum lines and blocked holes to stop water/dirt ingress i have left them alone to keep the dirt out
Its a really simple job, but the manual hubs are worth their weight in gold
Thanks. That is really helpful and it looks like a very doable job. Do you know if the Vitara 1600 ones will fit? Thanks for the link to jimnybits. I can't find a spacer supplier now. :blush:
